From the episode

He played 77% of the offensive snaps last year. He was at 39%. He was on the field for 71% of their pass plays. Actually, his route participation was 71%... That gives me a lot of hope that he can jump into the mid-range tight end one conversation.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalUsage

Kincaid's increased route participation makes him a strong TE1 start.

Dalton Kincaid saw a significant usage increase in Week 1, with 77% snap share and 71% route participation. These are his highest marks since mid-2024, positioning him as a mid-range TE1 for Week 2 against a Lions defense that struggled against tight ends.
